Oh wow I wish that font was even remotely readable
The code font is more readable than the rest of the website: https://artanis.dev/scheme.html
Dot matrix printer that's low in ink
Good thing there's reader mode, with a nice and large default system font
Oh, I thought it was quite fun, and still found it easily readable
Looks amazing with JS turned off!
It looks like the DUNE font:
That is horrible.
I did not see it at first as I had JS off. Once I allowed JS the font loaded and .. yuck.
If you zoom in it's pretty cool how each letter is a matrix of squares, but agreed - very challenging and distracting to try and read when the end result looks interlaced.
Agree, had to pop this into chrome devtools to get through the page:
let newStyle = document.createElement('style'); newStyle.innerHTML = 'body { font-family: "Verdana"; background-color: #eee}'; document.head.appendChild(newStyle);
I've got a dot matrix printer somewhere in a box that could reprint that site with all the dot lines, if I manage to find it and connect to a computer. I can't remember if it has a serial or parallel port.
Oh, that's terrible. There's a reason we don't have dot matrix printers anymore.
it would be slightly better if it were black background and green ink
At first I thought Artanis was a new font! And even reading the text I couldn't shake the impression that they were offering me this weird font with each character cut up by horizontal lines.
When I zoomed in it looks kind of cute. Maybe I should download the Artanis font after all.
I know we're not supposed to go off on website stuff (per guidelines: "Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—e.g. article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage") but jfc who thought this design was even remotely a good idea?
I don't see any unreadable parts and found it very readable. I guess yet again saved by not downloading random web fonts onto my machine or not running random JS. Yay! Blocking unnecessary traffic for the win!
Yes the crazy sci-fi font is hard to read, but I have to give them props for being unique. I even like the grammatical mistakes, it's so different than the ultra-polished stuff we usually see here. This project has personality!
